Sunday. 10th. Barramundi bake for dinner (supposedly more responsible than basa, but it wasn't quite the same)
Then Crown 6.3.
Monday. Ok sleep. Ok day. I felt like I could maybe have a nice wind down to Christmas at right. Yeah right. All The People wanting All The Things.
In the evening started pulling apart Neil's Saturn V. Then I came to this. Turns out I'd put this row of cylinder pieces in the wrong way. But I blame Lego because look at this crap. You build it all up one way..
So you'd expect it to slot in as is. But nooooo.. you have to flip it round!
I missed that and put it in the wrong way around. Pissed off because I certainly wasn't going to remake it all to rephotograph it. But I'm never going to unsee it.
Tuesday. Took ages to get to sleep - too hot with covers on, too cold without. In the morning finished reading through my blog entries (so far) for my year in review post. Probably the earliest that has ever happened, pays to start these things early. In October. Can probably start writing things up now, just adding a few things here and there as needed. Another nothing much day - too many distractions and interruptions to really concentrate on anything. In the evening organised Christmas with my family. I was hoping we could do something in January so as not to cut into the break, but alas that was not to be. Still, it was all organised with not too much stress from me, I just told Mum and David to sort it out amongst themselves :)
Wednesday. Slept mostly ok. Another day of too many distractions and interruptions to really concentrate on anything. Had the division Christmas party at lunch which was actually pretty chilled. There was a heap of leftover sausages in the fridge which I yoinked for our party. This cool thing arrived just in time to start!
Thursday. Not too much in the morning. In the afternoon had a super intense decommissioning session. Was at it for three hours straight but still didn't finish it. Last drinks. It was pretty quiet and I ended up running the bar while Neil went to a committee meeting.
Friday. Woke up for like an hour and a half during the night. Not much in the morning then it was off to do the shoppying for my Christmas bbq at the lake! Had close to 60 people come this year, one of the biggest in a long time. Sadly no ducks came by to be molested.
Saturday. Woke up for like two hours during the night. So pretty tired. Spent ages sorting out all the recycling and leftovers from the party. These aren't all from the party, some are mine from the past few months.
Also weeding and All The Things. Although not nearly as much as I needed to get done.
I also cooked up all the chicken sausages that we didn't end up using at our party. While they'd been put in the fridge straight away on Wednesday, and kept in an esky all Friday afternoon, the esky wasn't super cold. So I cooked the heck out of them, had one, then froze the rest. If I don't get food poisoning (over a day later, so far so good) then they'll be fine.
Finished off several containers of old leftovers to clear space in the fridge then watched Love Actually.
Sunday. Slept relatively well. More weeding in the morning, then brunch then food shopping and suddenly it's lunch time. Hmmmm. Felt blah about everything I needed to do, so barely got any of it done. Cooked up the beef sausages and had one, same deal as the chicken ones yesterday.
And just like that the weekend is over and I still have barely scratched my todo list..
